Transitioning from cancer patient to cancer survivor
When patients end treatment, they often report feeling lost, abandoned, and unsure of what to feel and do next. End-of-treatment stress is often unexpected because patients anticipate feeling relief when active treatment ends and hoping they can “get back to their lives.” The transition from cancer patient to cancer survivor can be very challenging.
I am thrilled to announce the launch of our fall Cancer Transitions Program funded with the grant we won from LIVESTRONG (Lance Armstrong Foundation).
Check out the article I wrote on "Combating end-of-treatment stress" while I was in Austin for training.
This is a six-week program (Oct 10, 17 & 24, Nov 1, 7 & 14)) with a one month booster session Dec 12. We will meet from 6 - 8:30PM on the Providence St. Peter Hospital campus. Dinner will be served.
Please forward this information to anyone you know who has completed active cancer treatment and is looking for tools and resources to successfully transition to the next phase of survivorship.
Please contact me if you have any questions or would like more information. Thank you for your support!
